As is the custom, awards get handed out at this kind of thing, too, and Joystiq’s got a report detailing a few of the winners. Fez won the big Best in Show prize and Phil Fish’s long-brewing, dimension-warping platformer also got an award for Story/World Design, too. Other notable winners include Capybara Games’ hit Superbrothers: Sword & Sworcery EP for Visuals and the yet-to-be-released Johann Sebastian Joust won an Impact on the Community award.
A game called The Swapper nabbed the Special Recognition award, too. I’ve never heard of it — or Finnish developer Facepalm Games — before but it looks absolutely gorgeous and intriguing. Discovery of games like this is the true power of IndieCade. Oh, IndieCade, how I wish I were in you this year…
